Austin Matos Ltd is the worldwide distributor of the cachaça brand, ZECA de Matos. With investment from Brazil and this UK company, December 2015 marks the arrival of the first international shipment here to the UK, the brand’s global office.
ZECA de Matos Cachaça is distilled from once pressed sugar cane which is grown on the Matos family estate in the densely rich and abundant state of Minas Gerias. The Matos family have produced their much loved, artisan cachaça for more than 120 years and are extremely excited about the international enthusiasm for their hand crafted product.
Marcos Figueiredo, the grandson of Zeca, is a founding Shareholder and Director of Austin Matos Ltd and stated “My family and I are very proud of the development of the ZECA brand and we are confident that the quality of our cachaça will be welcomed in cocktail bars throughout the world.”
Tony Austin, who is a founding Director Shareholder of Austin Matos Ltd, commented “We have been on a fascinating and sometimes challenging journey developing our new brand and introducing it into the market. Throughout this process we have received considerable support and advice from Treasury Accounting Ltd and they have been our advisers and Andrew Sainsbury is an important part of our team.”
